Quadrum

With clean, fluid lines and one-of-a-kind designs by artisans from around the world, Quadrum is as much a gallery as it is a retail outlet. Expect to find a few whimsical pieces in addition to contemporary styles of everything from earrings to rings, bracelets, and necklaces. Any of the more than 40 artists can recreate a setting on display using stones brought in by customers.

The Mall at Chestnut Hill, Newton, 617-965-5555, quadrumgallery.com/
